Out to lunch原來是在說人神志不清？Take a hike原來不是行山？8個罵人不動聲色的英文 | IELTS 9分 + DSE 7科5**狀元 | Melody Tam

讚Melody小姐英語選才精采，我補充：You're all wet = 你藕嘅。You're toast = 你死啦。Out to lunch =蒙查查，烏瀡瀡(讀烏 sir sir)。What were you thinking? = 你懵咗呀？。Take a hike (American English) = Go away (British English) = Get lost (俗語滾開，躝開！)。Use your noodle = Use your head = Think about it = 你諗吓。

Hi Melody, 預祝你2024工作順利繼續美豔動人😊多謝你嘅分享,希望你個channel愈做愈成功🎉

今次嘅講解十分生動有趣，而且非常之有用。 抵讚！

1. You’re all wet 2. ⁠You’re toast 3. ⁠You asked for it 4. ⁠What were you thinking 5. ⁠Use your noodle 6. ⁠Take a hike 7. ⁠You’re lemon 8. ⁠Out to lunch

Why use noodle to mean head? Doug Rice wrote in Quora: The noddle (often the nodle) was thought to be a part of the head, possibly a bone toward the back. If we look at the OED, in a manuscript from 1425, we find "Sche smytes hir-selfe in þe nodel of the hede byhynde." and in an anatomy text from 1548, "A bone of the hinder part of the head called the Noddel of the head." The slang term 'noodle' for the head, which pops up in a dictionary of criminal slang from 1914, is thought to possibly be related.

I have been living in Toronto, Canada for half-a-century, graduated college and worked with blue chip institutions during my career. I have never, ever heard anyone use the phrase "you're all wet" either in Canada nor in the U.S., not on TV, nor in movies. If any of your followers were to use the phrase, the other party would likely be stumped, speechless. Rather, one might say "are you serious?" or "that's totally unrealistic" or "that's ludicrous" or "that's absurd". Comments aside, you do have excellent intonation in your enunciation.

"Out to lunch" 可以這樣解釋嗎? : It can be used informally to describe someone who seems absent-minded(心不在焉，或神遊出去了), not paying attention, or acting in a way that suggests they are not fully engaged or aware of what's happening. Example: "During the meeting, it seemed like he was out to lunch. He didn't respond to any questions."

Hello Melody, 你拍的片真十分精彩,希望你新的一年可以拍更多更好的片😊😊

Hi Melody. What a refreshing feeling watching your video on New Year's Eve! As always, your presentation and lessons are superb, and I really admire how you skillfully switched between multiple roles. Job well done! May I suggest a topic for your next video, please: How to praise someone subtley. For example, is it ok to say you're as sweet and appealing as an apple? I wish you a fun and happy new year! See you in 2024! 🎉🎊☃️

「神志不清」係「成語」。 神指精神，「志」指 「意志」，並非智力。 「神智不清」並非成語，只係坊間用錯別字，［習非成是］亂來而已❗

今日的課題內容很好,讓我認識特別的英語,避免出醜。Thanks a lot!

Hi Melody, 好喜歡你講呢啲日常用語. 有趣味性又實用. 得意的角色扮演. 👍🏻 仲欣賞你嘅presentation (the best compare to other similar channels that I watch) ie 左手邊解釋, 右手邊比例子, bottom有埋個time stamper. 容易follow. 我諗到可以再俾意見嘅就係： 如果有2個句子examples, 可唔可以考慮講第2個example嘅時候, 保留第一個example響上面? 因為咁樣同時見到2個examples (or even more examples) 响同一畫面， 做screenshot時for future revisions 會方便啲. Thanks. 🙏🏻 Keep up your fantastic work! Love it!!

Although I’ve never heard anyone calling someone a lemon, my guess is that it derives from the term “lemon law”, which is a law meant to protect consumers when their purchases (e.g a car) turn out defective.

係英國讀遏多年書 仍有不少係唔識 即使識 由妳講出嚟都特別有趣 相信妳教英文一定好生動

非常有趣，多謝分享！❤

You asked for it - 這句話會很 offensive,因為有攞景的含義。所以不能隨便用，隨時會翻臉

支持實用有效。多謝。

她所教的一切＇只適合用在非常知己的朋友間的對話！因為都是非常粗魯非正式的用法！小心使用！

hi melody今年学咗好多有用嘅生词 其实我都用您影片学广东话😽happy new year 新的一年祝您越来越好~~

好漂亮的英語老師、要是以前上學有這樣漂亮、發音又標準的英語老師、相信一定可以學好英語！❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍
